>>25034802I'm not so much of a mastermind that I can recreate something like the Giygas fight in text yet, I'm making fanfiction for two threads on an imageboard. Technically what I meant by peeks besides actual foreshadowing are scene shifts. There's meant to be a change of perspective at the end of chapter 1 which vaguely gives you an idea of what kind of problems persist in this area that the partners are going to. However, I haven't technically gotten to that part yet and I'm wondering if it should really be there or not. It may not be needed considering that chapter 2 is meant to be cut in two halves in exactly such a fashion. If I do decide to hold on the scene shift then chapter 1 might not be much longer than 7,000 words.
It's certainly a very tricky issue, one that I'm not going to have much a problem with once the plot finally hits the actual characters like a cinder block.
